Day 10 of the 31 Day Countdown to 11-8 with One Real Problem Solution a Day

To put an even finer edge on our situation with Congress.

If you are 18 to 35 years old and you care about the Climate in your future,

How could you ever vote for a climate-denyingRepublican on 11-8!

DAY 10 Proposal - Family Related 3 of 4 – Fitness – Youth and Adult

This is blunt and where being politically correct is not prudent. More and more over the last 40 years the average American has shall we say gained a few pounds. To the point where today a disturbing percentage of our population in all age groups are over a healthy weight level, if not actually obese. This is a growing national health care crisis with some 86 million Americans on a path to Type-2 Diabetes and a lot of other avoidable ailments. If you have no idea what diabetes can do to the human body please do a little research.

The Pharmaceutical Industry is loving this! Future sales! Rude, but absolutely true folks. We have Health Care Industry that functions solely as a repair shop, not as the preventive medicine operation it should be.

And of course, no one in the government is doing anything to raise awareness or confront the problem. Yes, each of us is responsible for our own health, but when the masses are headed in a dangerous direction, leadership needs to call our attention to any problem and work to help the Common Good.

My generation the Baby Boomers had President John F. Kennedy’s Physical Fitness movement and many of us healthy today because of it. And, men until 1976 had 2-years of military conditioning with the Selective Service Draft.

Today, public and parochial schools have cut back on physical education and even recess for students due to foolish budget cuts and fear of frivolous lawsuits. We must reverse this disastrous trend in schools K thru 12 and in higher education, as well.

Students must come out of high school in good to excellent physical condition. In the book CS2, I recommend the nationwide implementation of the Windsor Palate exercise program. It is a well-known program used by professional athletes and supermodels. It requires only a floor mat. That combined with regular exercises for 30 minutes a day for 5 times a week and are students will learn about being healthy and as a by-product will begin to eat healthier.

For adults, each of us needs to become personally accountable and employers need to encourage their employees to drop 10 to 20% of their weight. This goes back to the Citizen Common Agreement presented in an earlier video where each of us needs to be as healthy as possible to reduce current and future Health Care costs. Today the only thing our for-profit Health Insurance Industry really concerns itself with is profits – not people.

Parents can demand physical fitness in their children’s schools at the next Parent/School meeting. Just do it, please!
